Rumble is absolutely massive, there is no way he ever made 170 without some type of illegal diuretic.

Matt Erickson &#8207;<s>@</s>MMAjunkieMatt <small class="time"> 3m3 minutes ago </small> THAT is the kind of opportunity you give Henderson to recover. Just asking for some consistency, is all.

Wow that was scary, Gus looked great, tagging Rumble hard but threw that kick and got countered hard. Rumble has tremendous power. Ref let Gus take wayyyy too many shots, he wasn't out but he wasn't recovering, terrible stoppage.

I think the one Rumble took was banned or not tested for the when it was then he couldn't even make 185

Rumble is a powerful man! Hendo shouldn't have been stopped either but it happens he did get caught.

It was, because Cyborg was using it too, he was definitely cheating to fight at 170.

Yeah that's a bad spot to get hit it, completely takes your equilibrium away.

I just watched on DVR. Crazy. Alex seriously took 15 brutal shots to the head before it being stopped.

Yeah that was way too late of a stoppage, I understand giving a guy a chance to recover but he wasn't coming back from that. Live to fight another day.

I think after the co-main, plus he was in his home country, the ref gave him every possible chance to keep the fight going. I think it went on too long, but at the same time i can see why.

Als0, I'm stoked Rumble won. I'd love to see him connect with Jones.

Yeah I get why they did it, wanted the home town hero to have a chance to recover, but 16 straights shots is more than enough. Don't wanna see guys take more damage when they really need to when they obviously aren't coming back. Hell of a career turnaround by Rumble, Koscheck and Vitor whooped his ass not too long ago.

That was a fun card just watched it. Don't like Gus so glad Rumble smoked him. Impressive by Bader but a good fight

This is one of my top anticipated fights of all time, I can't wait for it. I hope the UFC does more fun fights and match ups like this in the future.

I just saw a GIF and there was a very significant head clash that occurred when Rumble landed that right hand on Gus, the way the two collided it certainly contributed to how hurt Gus was.
